Well, thought I would finally put together a small build thread for my new 09 Tacoma. I'll start with a picture of a FORD! This is the truck I had before my Tacoma. I live in the city and the gas and size of this thing was getting pretty old, so away she went.

So, I knew that I wanted a Tacoma. In my opinion, the Tacoma was is the best looking truck on the market, it just looks so sexy. I decided I wanted a doublecab, with a shortbox, 4x4 and the TRD and Sport package. Problem - this truck is not available in Canada for some reason, only in the Longbox. So, into the USA I began to search. Another problem, USA Toyota dealers will not sell new Toyotas to Canadians. Well geez, thats not very nice! Anyways, long story short, I figured a way around this and bought a brand new 09 Tacoma in Magnetic grey with a shortbox and all the options I wanted. But, it had to make a little trek across the USA to get to its new home.

looking good bud, like the rims and my buddy was trying to get me to buy the exact same tires but I think I am going to go with km2's

Thanx! Yeah, I was really considering the Km2's also. Those and the Duratracs I went back and forth with for about 2 weeks. I finally decided on the Duratracs as we get a ton of rain over here, so I figured they would handle better in wet conditions. I must say though, the Duratracs look much better in person, the pictures do not do them justice.
